Trump Administration's Orwellian Weekend Leaves Media Gobsmacked

As noted on Friday, normally this space is devoted to a rather diverse range of news from across the media landscape. But the weekend was largely dominated by all things Trump, thus this special wall-to-wall, post-inauguration edition of your daily media roundup.

1. The top story on the front page of this morning's New York Times is labeled "News Analysis" and carries the headline "Trump's Rocky Start Jeopardizes Leverage" and the subhead "President Resorts to Campaign Tactics Even as Some Advisers Urge Discipline." (The headline on the web version of the story is "Rocky First Weekend for Trump Troubles Even His Top Aides.") The story by Peter Baker, Glenn Thrush and Maggie Haberman begins, "President Trump's first weekend in office unfolded much the way things often did during his campaign: with angry Twitter messages, a familiar obsession with slights and a series of meandering and at times untrue statements, all eventually giving way to attempts at damage control."
